Pet Hospitalization

Pet hospitalization involves admitting your pet to our clinic for intensive monitoring, diagnostics, and medical care. Some conditions require consistent fluid support, medications, or monitoring that cannot be provided at home. In these cases, hospitalization ensures your pet receives the care they need throughout the day.

Our facility is equipped to support hospitalized patients during business hours Monday through Friday. While we do not provide overnight monitoring or weekend care, we will refer you to a trusted emergency clinic (EC) for those times if continued hospitalization is necessary. Pets referred to the EC over the weekend can return to us the following Monday to resume treatment.

Pets may require hospitalization for a variety of medical reasons. These include, but are not limited to:

• Gastrointestinal disorders such as pancreatitis
• Acute or chronic kidney failure
• Severe infections, including parvovirus
• Dehydration requiring IV fluids
• Post-surgical monitoring

By admitting your pet for care, we can administer timely treatments, monitor progress, and make adjustments to their treatment plan as needed.

Choosing pet hospitalization in Midland, TX, allows your pet to receive focused, daytime medical attention from a knowledgeable veterinary team. During their stay, we track vital signs, run diagnostic tests, and keep you informed about your pet’s condition. Prompt access to care can often improve outcomes and provide clarity on the next steps in managing your pet’s health.

Our team understands the stress that comes with leaving a pet in the hospital. We encourage communication and provide updates so you can feel confident in their care.

Hospitalization is recommended when your pet’s condition cannot be managed safely at home. If your pet is lethargic, not eating or drinking, vomiting continuously, or has been diagnosed with a serious condition such as parvovirus or organ failure, it is important to act quickly.

If hospitalization is needed outside our regular hours, we will work with local emergency facilities to ensure your pet receives continuous care. We will remain involved in your pet’s treatment plan and continue care during the week when they return to our clinic.
